  • Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor?
    DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2015.16.8.3579 Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? RESEARCH ARTICLE Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? Wei Deng1&, Long Long2&*, Xian-Yan Tang3, Tian-Ren Huang1, Ji-Lin Li1, Min- Hua Rong1, Ke-Zhi Li1, Hai-Zhou Liu1 Abstract Geographic information system (GIS) technology has useful applications for epidemiology, enabling the detection of spatial patterns of disease dispersion and locating geographic areas at increased risk. In this study, we applied GIS technology to characterize the spatial pattern of mortality due to liver cancer in the autonomous region of Guangxi Zhuang in southwest China. A database with liver cancer mortality data for 1971-1973, 1990-1992, and 2004-2005, including geographic locations and climate conditions, was constructed, and the appropriate associations were investigated. It was found that the regions with the highest mortality rates were central Guangxi with Guigang City at the center, and southwest Guangxi centered in Fusui County. Regions with the lowest mortality rates were eastern Guangxi with Pingnan County at the center, and northern Guangxi centered in Sanjiang and Rongshui counties. Regarding climate conditions, in the 1990s the mortality rate of liver cancer positively correlated with average temperature and average minimum temperature, and negatively correlated with average precipitation. In 2004 through 2005, mortality due to liver cancer positively correlated with the average minimum temperature. Regions of high mortality had lower average humidity and higher average barometric pressure than did regions of low mortality.

  • Allocating Resources to Control HIV/AIDS in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region: Potential Relevance for China
    Public Disclosure Authorized Allocating Resources to Control HIV/AIDS in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region: Potential Relevance for China Public Disclosure Authorized Overview and Synthesis of Main Findings Public Disclosure Authorized Human Development Unit East Asia and Pacific Region The World Bank August 2007 Public Disclosure Authorized Document of the World Bank Overview and Synthesis of Main Findings 1. Introduction In recent years, China has dramatically scaled up its response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Key steps include the establishment of HIV prevention and control as a priority in the 11th National Five-Year Development Plan (2006-2010), the development of a comprehensive policy framework for HIV/AIDS prevention treatment and care (reflected in the Five-Year action Plan to Control HIV/AIDS 2006-2010), and in March 2006, the issuance of the first legislation directly aimed at controlling HIV/AIDS („Regulations on AIDS prevention and treatment‟, Decree of the State Council No. 457).1 Under this framework, China has implemented a number of innovative harm reduction and prevention interventions and significantly strengthened its epidemiological and behavioral surveillance system. In addition, the government has launched a major treatment, care and support initiative (the “Four Free and One Care”) for poor rural and urban patients. These measures have been accompanied by firm demonstrations of commitment to fighting AIDS by key Chinese leaders. This increased national commitment to fighting HIV/AIDS has been reflected in a rapidly expanding AIDS budget (Figure 1). Central government resources devoted to AIDS doubled between 2003 and 2004, and have increased sixty-fold relative to their level in 2000.
